marijuana
Marijuana is a term used to describe the dried leaves, flowers, stems, and seeds of the cannabis plant that are typically smoked, vaporized, or ingested for their psychoactive effects. Marijuana is a slang term that is often used interchangeably with cannabis, but it specifically refers to the form of the plant that is used for recreational or medicinal purposes.
Weed contains a variety of compounds known as cannabinoids, including the psychoactive cannabinoid delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and the non-psychoactive cannabinoid cannabidiol (CBD). THC is responsible for the plant’s psychoactive effects, including altered perception, mood changes, and increased appetite, while CBD is believed to have a range of potential health benefits.
